Anyone used these or like product? Seems easier than changing buttons.

I was just looking at these today and opted NO.  If you check out their youtube video for install, it's a fairly intensive excercise, but read the comments.  The video was photoshopped.  If they are so great, why photoshop your install video?

  I'm still looking. The reviews on Amazon say they bleed through
when the lights are on. Was hopping for these. I called them
they do not have the door controls. 

So I guess I'll start looking at buttons.

Thanks!

If you find anything, keep us updated.  I need both driver/passenger heated seat/pedal control panels.  There's a couple of companies offering to refurbish them if you send them in, but I'm afraid they are just using the same decals.  The replacement control panels are $190 bucks each!  Doorman has a knockoff for around $120 each.  Hoping to find some in a Junkyard that aren't wiped like mine.
 
Found radio knobs on Ebay.

Not sure I want to go through with the vinyl
and have bleed.

It's time to walk the U-Pull-It's for the rest.  :E:
 
  This what I kept running into. Need the UC6 CD 6 player.
Thanks for the try.



AM/FM-CD Player, Option Code UB0
 
Amazon warehouse deals is your friend

https://www.amazon.com/Dorman-76822-Radio-Button-Assortment/dp/B00QSLMXSM/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_1?s=automotive&ie=UTF8&qid=1517710326&sr=1-1-fkmr0&keywords=gm+radio+button+76822  ???
 
  Well when Dorman first showed up I went to their web site.
Thought I scored. No they only have Code UB0 radio knobs.

  The one on Ebay is the only one so for the UC6 CD 6 player.

  I appreciate the help. You would think Dorman has the one why
not the other.

 
Does the Dorman 76824 fit. Or can you pull the radio and get the 8 digit model number
 
  I came across this one.
https://www.amazon.com/Button-Replacement-COMPLETE-2003-2007-General/dp/B00LMGGTDS/ref=sr_1_2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1517728742&sr=1-2&keywords=Radio+Button+Replacement+%26+Knob

I did not see the listing for the numbers off the
radio before. My head been spinning trying to get this
done.

  The ones on Ebay are more complete. They look like a little better quality
on EBay. I'll contact the seller on Ebay see if the will give me the fit numbers
on theirs.

I just do not understand why Dorman does not carry the 6 disc. 

Sure appreciate everyone's help.

I over looked this Amazon comes up dose not fit the 03.
So I'll have to look at this further.

Well I give up I could not find an exact fit, I'm guessing it is too old to find replacement parts.:dunno:
 
  Dorman has the signal disc why not the 6disc?  :beating: :beating: :beating: :beating: :beating: :beating: :beating: :beating:
 
:dunno: besides its 14 years old.

I've been looking for the climate control buttons for a year or so and its the same thing one model fits 03-04 and another model fits 05-06
 
          Trying these out and with new bulbs.

has anyone tried to use clear vinyl inside verses the outside and clear coated over it followed by the correct matching color? 
My thought is to have the design I want to be lit up cut on a vinyl cutter.  weed out the outside and place it on the button.  Then using a clear coat plastic paint to cover the entire button and seal the vinyl on the button.  Then using the correct color for the button, cover the entire button.  when dry, remove the vinyl from the button using a dental pick and it should make the button.  The paint should be available at the auto parts store.  if not, I'm sure I can find it online.
I will be trying this on my 2006 avalanche soon.  I will keep you posted
 
  Yes keep us posted.
There are buttons you can't find.
I don't know the in and outs of a
Three D printer. Could they do a
button and keep the print able to show?
